Hi everyone,


i recently installed proxmox on my ml310 gen8. First thing i noticed was the high fanspeed wich i didn't had in VMware ESXI.
Can somebody help how to fix this issue.
 
Check whether your BIOS controls the fanspeeds or if this is handled over to the OS.
If it is the OS you can install fan control software which should be available in proxmox because it is a Linux OS in the end
 
And if its controlled by the BMC there might be scripts to control it over ipmitool. Wrote one for myself to dynamically adjust the fans of my supermicro boards.

the option in the bios are optimal and increased so that is not it.
You mean install in the proxmox OS or create a VM/container and use in the VM the fan control software?

On the PVE host itself. PVE is just a fancy Debian so you can install everything a normal Debian could run.

What exaclty do you mean? You can install stuff using apt (if a program is part of a repository), dpkg (if you downloaded a single deb file) or compile it yourself if you only got source code. First you should look what you want to install and whats written there how to install it. Maybe HP is already offering a tool for Debian to control the fans.
 
but how do you controll the fan speed?
